<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>On the Rocks by Kandi Steiner</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Release Date: June 13, 2019</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8442" src="https://thereadreportblog.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/otr-cover-final-1.png" alt="OTR Cover FINAL.png" width="627" height="1000" /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><i>On the Rocks, an all-new standalone contemporary romance by Kandi Steiner.</i></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Noah Becker is nothing but trouble.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">That’s what Mama told me when I was a kid, kicking his pew in church and giggling at the games we’d play. It’s what the town said when his father died and the Becker brothers went wild. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">And it’s on repeat in my mind the day I walk into the whiskey distillery where he works to buy a wedding gift for my fiancé.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">He’s trouble. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dirty, sweaty, rude trouble. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">No matter how many times I repeat it, I can’t escape Noah in our small Tennessee town. And the more I run into him, the more he infuriates me. Because he sees what no one else does.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">He sees me—the real me. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The me I’m not sure I’m allowed to be.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m Ruby Grace Barnett, the mayor’s daughter. Soon to be a politician’s wife, just like Mama and Daddy always wanted. Soon to fulfill my family’s legacy, just like I always knew I would.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Until the boy everyone warned me about makes me question everything, like whether the wedding I’m planning is one I even want. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Everyone said Noah Becker was nothing but trouble.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">If only I had listened.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A stand-alone, contemporary romance.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8443" src="https://thereadreportblog.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/an-fb-1.png" alt="AN FB.png" width="1000" height="1000" /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Download your copy today or read FREE in Kindle Unlimited!</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Amazon US: </span><a href="https://amzn.to/2KfzmD4"><span style="font-weight: 400;">https://amzn.to/2KfzmD4</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Amazon Worldwide: </span><a href="http://mybook.to/OnTheRocks"><span style="font-weight: 400;">http://mybook.to/OnTheRocks</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Add to GoodReads: </span><a href="http://bit.ly/2Keav1w"><span style="font-weight: 400;">http://bit.ly/2Keav1w</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8444" src="https://thereadreportblog.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/blog-tour.png" alt="Blog Tour.png" width="1000" height="1000" /><strong>Excerpt:</strong></p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> I watched from the sidelines as Betty schooled Noah on the final dance scene from the classic movie — and one of her favorites. Noah, bless his heart, took it in stride. He held her hands, spun her gently, even went under water completely to give Betty some sort of “lift” that made her feel like Jennifer Grey.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> That was when her smile was the largest — her eyes closed, face cast upward, arms out in the same iconic flight stance that the actress had done.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> If I wasn’t laughing so hard, I might have cried at the sentiment.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> After a dozen more run throughs, Betty called for a break, and the two of them swam up to the side of the pool where I sat. Betty took the lemonade I offered her, sipping and hollering across the pool at Mr. Buchanan — who was seated under the umbrellas. Noah rested his arms on the concrete edge, crossing them and resting his head on his forearm before he peered up at me through lashes still dripping with water.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> His eyes were an endless blue, the light from the pool reflecting off them like a tropical dream.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “Enjoying your entertainment this afternoon, Miss. Barnett?”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> I bit my lip against a smile. “Very much so, Mr. Becker. I never knew you were such a great dancer.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “Oh, you should see me on the actual dance floor. I can two step and waltz and cha cha with the best of them. And don’t even get me started on what happens when ‘Watermelon Crawl’ comes on.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “I’m sure it’s quite entertaining,” I mused, still dangling my feet in the cool water.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “When do I get to see your dance moves?”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> I barked out a laugh at that. “Um, that would be approximately… never.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “Never?” he asked, popping his head up off his arms with a look of injustice. “But you’ve seen all my moves, now. I show you mine, you show me yours. Isn’t that the deal?”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “I never agreed to that.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> He narrowed his eyes, running his forefinger and thumb over the stubble on his chin before he nodded. “I see…” Then, a wicked gleam came over those blue steel eyes, and before I could so much as scream, his hand wrapped around my wrist, tugging forward until I was off the ledge and under water.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> I popped up instantly, not even able to open my eyes against the chlorine yet before I was swinging at him. “Noah!”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> He laughed, catching my advances easily and pulling me into him. I blinked several times, shaking the drops from my eyes before I glared up at him.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “You jerk. Mama’s going to kill me for ruining my hair.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “Mama will live,” he said, and then one arm wrapped around my waist, the other taking my hand in a leading position. “Now, let’s dance, little lady.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> With one pull of my hand and push of my hip, I spun away from him, reeling back in like a yo-yo and falling in line with his steps before I realized what was happening. Surprise ripped through me, brows shooting up to my hairline as he somehow managed to smoothly twirl me around that metaphorical dance floor even with water hitting us waist deep. My feet felt sluggish, the moves slower than if we were in boots on a hardwood floor, but somehow, that made it even more fun.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> I laughed and laughed as he danced me around — until he had the bright idea to flip me like a swing dancer. I emerged from the water beating on his chest again, which just made him laugh harder. And when we were breathless, Noah tugged me to the side of the pool again.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> “Thank you for the dance,” he said, both of us still breathing heavily as he wrapped his strong, rugged hands around my waist. For a moment, he just held them there, the rough pad of his thumbs smoothing over my exposed hip bones. My smile fell, chest still heaving as my eyes slipped to his lips.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> I didn’t know why I looked at them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> I didn’t know why I couldn’t look away.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: 400;"> Noah swallowed, tightening his grip on my hips before he lowered in the water a little and helped push me back up onto the edge of the pool where I’d been seated before. Once I was steady, he released his hold on me, backing away with a distant look in his eyes that I couldn’t decipher before he tore them from me and looked at Betty, instead.</span><br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>About Kandi: </strong></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kandi Steiner is a bestselling author and whiskey connoisseur living in Tampa, FL. Best known for writing “emotional rollercoaster” stories, she loves bringing flawed characters to life and writing about real, raw romance — in all its forms. No two Kandi Steiner books are the same, and if you’re a lover of angsty, emotional, and inspirational reads, she’s your gal.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">An alumna of the University of Central Florida, Kandi graduated with a double major in Creative Writing and Advertising/PR with a minor in Women’s Studies. She started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a diehard hopeless romantic, and likes to highlight all the challenges of love as well as the triumphs.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">When Kandi isn’t writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, talking with her extremely vocal cat, and spending time with her friends and family. She enjoys live music, traveling, anything heavy in carbs, beach days, movie marathons, craft beer, and sweet wine — not necessarily in that order.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Connect with Kandi:</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mailing List: </span><a href="http://bit.ly/NewsletterKS"><span style="font-weight: 400;">bit.ly/NewsletterKS</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Facebook: </span><a href="http://facebook.com/kandisteiner"><span style="font-weight: 400;">facebook.com/kandisteiner</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Facebook Reader Group: (Kandiland): </span><a href="http://facebook.com/groups/kandischasers"><span style="font-weight: 400;">facebook.com/groups/kandischasers</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram: </span><a href="http://www.instagram.com/kandisteiner"><span style="font-weight: 400;">www.instagram.com/kandisteiner</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Twitter: </span><a href="http://twitter.com/kandisteiner"><span style="font-weight: 400;">twitter.com/kandisteiner</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pinterest: </span><a href="http://pinterest.com/kandicoffman"><span style="font-weight: 400;">pinterest.com/kandicoffman</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Website: </span><a href="http://www.kandisteiner.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">www.kandisteiner.com</span></a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kandi Steiner may be coming to a city near you!

The Wrong Game</div>

Kandi Steiner</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oct. 6, 2018</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
391 pages</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1.3rem; padding: 0px;">
Two season tickets. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">
One <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">genius</i> idea. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">
Zero interest in a relationship.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
The plan is simple: a brand new, hot, preferably funny, definitely single male will fill one of those seats for every Bears game at Soldier Field. And I'll fill the other.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
I can't think of a better way to use the season passes I'd bought for my ex-husband. I am a woman of plans, and this one's foolproof.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
Until Zach Bowen offers to be my practice round.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
He's infuriating. Presumptuous and overbearing. And absolutely, undeniably gorgeous. Any woman with a heartbeat would be attracted to him, and mine picks up speed every time he speaks.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
But as I said, I'm a woman of plans -- and I'm not backing down on this one.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />
One night. One game. And then, his time's up.<br />
<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />

<span style="color: black; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Amazing. Kandi never fails to deliver a book that makes you not want to put it down. I'm not big on sports being in books but I absolutely loved this story. It's not about people who play the sport but two people who share a passion for the sport and a team. How this love for a sports team brings these two people together after unfortunate circumstances thar happen to Gemma. Its gonna have you laughing and in true Kandi fashion it'll have you cry as well. It's well worth reading.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">It's supposed to go like this. Boy meets girl, they fall madly in love with each other, battle some shit in their way, and after conquering the challenge, they ride off to their happily ever after.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">But, not one fairytale, or love story tells you that after that ride, life happens. We had our story, and we were supposed to live happily in our bubble forever. After one check-up, our bubble burst and reality started to invade. And now, facing the unsure road of IVF treatment, we have to be stronger than ever. Once again, we must go into battle for our happily ever after. Taking that first step was easy. Staying on this road is harder than we thought.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">And now, with unexpected obstacles in the way, it’s not a question of if the IVF will succeed. It’s will we be strong enough to stay together and reach for the stars?</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: "amazon ember" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">This is a new to me author. As I always do I judge new authors really tough because they have huge shoes to fill from all the authors I do love. This novel tackles the sensitive subject of fertility issues. I won't lie Ana had me in full fledged tears down my face by the second chapter. That wasn't the only time she had me in tears through this novel. She writes about Dani and Sam's journey through fertility issues and IVF treatments so beautiful and descriptive that you can't help but feel all their emotions with them. The tears just come before you even know it. This is a very beautifully written novel about a sensitive topic. I can not wait to read more books by Ana Balen.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Some girls are born independent and fierce. They constantly shock the world bringing it to its knees. Indigo Bryant is one of them. At the young age of thirty, she has already bought and sold a highly successful design business. Needing a change of pace, she up roots herself from New York City, to move near her best friend in a small town in Alabama. What was supposed to be a relaxing summer, starts to change into something different when she meets Alexander Clark…</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Despite his many talents and charming personality, Alexander Clark can't move forward and let go of the guilt from a horrible accident. His once promising baseball career, has now faded into the shadows. He's paralyzed by the nightmares of his past. That is until he meets Indigo…</span><br />

Indigo is no different. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: "amazon ember" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Lex and Indie are just two broken souls trying to find a way to heal.

Like every real life relationship they have work to make it work because who would think a city girl would fall for a country boy?</span></div>

On the outside it may look like he has moved on and is doing fine but deep down he is plagued with guilt, nightmares and unable to continue on. Then you have Indigo. She walks into his life and has him feeling things he hasn't felt in years. He isn't a knight on a white horse there to rescue anyone--he is the one needing rescued. Indigo is just the girl for that; she pushes him and supports him on his journey to letting go. Can Lex accept Indigo rescue attempt and let her all the way in and move on?</span></div>

Where do I begin for A Love Letter to Whiskey? It is an amazing book. With each page you turn you fall more and more into the drunken haze of Whiskey (Jamie). I absolutely loved how each chapter is titled with something pertaining to whiskey. I loved how you raw the emotions from B felt about Jamie. This was by far a gut wrenching story. I have never been so emotionally invested into a story like I got into this one. Kandi truly did a phenomenal job with this storyline. I had a Whiskey hangover for days. I got drunk off Whiskey just as much as B did. :)</div>

I love all books by Staci Hart but Tonic now takes the spot for my all time favorite book of her's. Annika and Joel are by far the most perfectly paired couple. I loved how you felt all the sexual tension between. I absolutely loved how Staci had tied in the bar Habits and Patrick from the Bad Habits series. That to me made the story come so much more to life. You do not need to read the Bad Habits series AT ALL to read Tonic. You should read them but Tonic is a story of its own. I have this undeniable urge for a tattoo now. I loved how the setting of the storyline was a reality tv show. What can I say I'm sucker for reality tv. Great job Staci :)</div>

Except this time, there was no rain, no anger, no wedding invitation — it was just us. <br /><br /> It was just him — the old friend, the easy smile, the twisted solace wrapped in a glittering bottle. <br /><br /> It was just me — the alcoholic, pretending like I didn’t want to taste him, realizing too quickly that months of being clean didn’t make me crave him any less. <br /><br /> But we can’t start here. <br /><br /> No, to tell this story right, we need to go back. <br /><br /> Back to the beginning. <br /><br /> Back to the very first drop. <br /><br /> <br /> This is my love letter to Whiskey. I only hope he reads it.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br />

<br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The first time I tasted Whiskey, I fell flat on my face. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Literally. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I was drunk from the very first sip, and I guess that should have been my sign to stay away. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Jenna and I were running the trail around the lake near her house, sweat dripping into our eyes from the intense South Florida heat. It was early September, but in South Florida, it might as well have been July. There was no “boots and scarves” season, unless you counted the approximately six weeks in January and February where the temperature dropped below eighty degrees. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">As it was, we were battling ninety-plus degrees, me trying to be a show off and prove I could keep up with Jenna’s cheerleading training program. She had finally made the varsity squad, and with that privilege came ridiculous standards she had to uphold. I hated running — absolutely <i>loathed</i> it. I would much rather have been on my surf board that day. But fortunately for Jenna, she had a competitive best friend who never turned down a challenge. So when she asked me to train with her, I’d agreed eagerly, even knowing I’d have screaming ribs and calves by the end of the day. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I saw him first. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I was just a few steps ahead of Jenna, and I’d been staring down at my hot pink sneakers as they hit the concrete. When I looked up, he was about fifty feet away, and even from that distance I could tell I was in trouble. He seemed sort of average at first — brown hair, lean build, soaked white running shirt — but the closer he got, the more I realized just how edible he was. I noticed the shift in the muscles of his legs as he ran, the way his hair bounced slightly, how he pressed his lips together in concentration as he neared us. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I looked over my shoulder, attempting to waggle my eyebrows at Jenna and give her the secret best friend code for “hot guy up ahead”, but she had stopped to tie her shoes. And when I turned back around, it was too late. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I smacked into him — hard — and fell to the pavement, rolling a bit to soften the fall. He cursed and I groaned, more from embarrassment than pain. I wish I could say I gracefully picked myself up, smiled radiantly, and asked him for his number, but the truth is I lost the ability to do anything the minute I looked up at him. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It was an unfamiliar, warm ache that spread through my chest as I used my hand to shield the sun streaming in behind his silhouette, just how you’d expect the first sip of whiskey to feel. He was bent over, hand outstretched, saying something that wasn’t registering because I had somehow managed to slip my hand into his and just that one touch had set my skin on fire. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Handsome wasn’t the right word to describe him, but it was all I kept thinking as I traced his features. His hair was a sort of mocha color, damp at the roots, falling onto his forehead just slightly. His eyes were wide — almost too round — and a mixture of gold, green, and the deepest brown. I didn’t coin the nickname Whiskey until much later, but it was that moment that I saw it for the first time — those were whiskey eyes. The kind of eyes you get lost in. The kind that drink you in. He had the longest lashes and a firm, square jaw. It was so hard, the edges so clean that I would have sworn he was angry with me if it weren’t for the smile on his face.He was still talking as my eyes fell over his broad chest before snapping back up to his sideways grin. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“Oh my God, are you fucking blind?!” Jenna’s voice snapped me from my haze as she shoved Whiskey out of the way and latched onto my hand, ripping me back to standing position. I’d barely caught my balance before she whipped around to continue her scolding. “How about you brush that long ass hair out of your eyes and watch where you’re going, huh champ?” </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>Oh no.</i> </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I didn’t even have time to call dibs, I couldn’t even <i>think</i> the word, let alone say it, before it was too late. I watched it, in slow motion, as Whiskey fell for my best friend before I even had the chance to say a single word to him. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Jenna was standing tall, arms crossed, one hip popped in her usual fashion as she waited for him to defend himself. This was her protocol — it was one of the reasons we got along. We were both what you’d call “spitfires”, but Jenna had the distinct advantage of being cripplingly gorgeous on top of having an attitude. She flipped her long, wavy blonde ponytail behind her and cocked a brow. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">And then he did, too. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">His smile grew wider as he met her eyes, and it was the same look I’d watched fall over guy after countless guy. Jenna was a unicorn, and men were enamored by her. As they should have been — she had platinum blonde hair, crystal blue eyes, legs for days and a personality to boot. Now, before you go thinking that I was the insecure best friend - I had it going on, too. I worked hard, I was talented - just not at the things traditional high school boys valued. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">But we’ll get to that. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“Hi,” Whiskey finally said, extending his hand to Jenna this time. His eyes were warm, smile inviting — if I had to pick the right word for him, just one, I’d say charming. He just oozed charm. “I’m Jamie.” </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“Well, <i>Jamie</i>, maybe you should make an appointment with the eye doctor before you run over another innocent jogger. And you owe Brecks an apology.” She nodded to me then and I cringed at my name, wondering why she felt the need to spill it at all. She always called me B — everyone did — so why did she choose the moment I was face to face with the first boy to ever make my heart accelerate to use my full name? </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Jamie was still grinning, eying Jenna, trying to figure her out, but he turned to me after a moment with that same crooked smile. “I’m sorry, I should have been watching where I was going.” He said the words with conviction, but lifted his brows on that last line because he and I both knew who wasn’t paying attention to the trail, and he wasn’t the guilty party. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">“It’s fine,” I murmured, because for some reason I was still having a difficult time finding my voice. Jamie tilted his head just a fraction, his eyes hard on me this time, and I felt naked beneath his gaze. I’d never had anyone look at me that way — completely zeroed in. It was unnerving and exhilarating, too. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">But before I could latch onto the feeling, he turned back to Jenna, their eyes meeting as slow smiles spread on both of their faces. I’d seen it a million times, but this was the first time I felt sick watching it happen. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I saw him first, but it didn’t matter. </span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span></span><br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Because he saw her.</span></span></div><br /><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Kandi Steiner is a Creative Writing and Advertising/Public Relations graduate from the University of Central Florida living in Tampa with her husband. Kandi works full time as a social media specialist, but also works part time as a Zumba fitness instructor and blackjack dealer.</span></span><br /><br />
<br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Kandi started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic (like most girls brought up on Disney movies).</span></span><br /><br />
<br /><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When Kandi isn’t working or writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, talking with her extremely vocal cat, and spending time with her friends and family. She enjoys beach days, movie marathons, live music, craft beer and sweet wine – not necessarily in that order.</span></span><br /><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Joel Anderson doesn’t take anything seriously. <br /><br /> Not his relationships, which have been few and far between since his brutal divorce. Not the drama of working in a tattoo parlor, which seems to be around every corner. When things get him down, he smiles and cracks a joke. But he’s not the kind of man you cross, or you’ll find yourself at the wrong end of his fists. <br /><br /> Annika Belousov takes everything seriously. <br /><br /> Like her job as a reality television producer, given that she typically has something to prove. Or her love life, which is defined by a series of requirements — affluent, ambitious, accomplished, to name a few. Definitely her family, who worked their whole lives to afford her every opportunity, a sacrifice she doesn’t take lightly. When she’s tapped to produce a reality show at Joel’s shop, she doesn’t think twice, just goes in for the kill, as if there were any other way. <br /><br /> The second Annika walks into Joel’s shop, he makes it his mission to crack her open, but she’s not having it. He’s all wrong — too crass, too hairy, too un-serious. But it doesn’t take her long to find out there’s more to him than smirks and tattoos. And what she finds could put her career and his heart on the line. <br /><br /> Not that Joel cares. Because for the first time in a long time, he’s found his tonic.</span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life: a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, even though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. Her favorite word starts with f and ends with k.</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">From roots in Houston, to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she's not writing, she's sleeping, cleaning, or designing graphics.</span></span></div>

This was my first ever time attending a big book signing. I have been to signings in book stores and all but not signings like this. To have so many authors in one place was an amazing experience. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I walked out of there with 22 new books and LOTS of new swag. The authors were so nice and friendly. </div>

I am stoked she is going to the Passions in Portland signing in September and I will get to meet her. Upon discovering her I have read all of her It's Kind of Personal books. Which include:<br />
<br />
~Make Me Forget<br />
~Show Me How<br />
~Prove Me Right<br />
~Tell Me How<br />
~Remember Me Now<br />
<br />
They are all amazing works of art. This author is truly talented and knows how to write a great story. I have been so busy with trying to figure out how to do reviews of them without spoilers. It is hard. I still haven't posted my reviews and I feel bad for that. Since, I am still struggling with writing them I wanted to share with you all what an amazing author she is. These are a series but could read as standalones. I don't recommend the standalone part as each book has parts or reveals information from the others. She has a way with writing that just makes you want to keep going and you fall for all the guys in her books. I have never been so torn between "lovers" as I have with her books. I have found myself going "Oh my god oh my god" or even being pissed. My emotions really come out as I read her books. I fully believe everyone should.<br />
<br />
Below is the link to her Amazon Author go there and one click ever single book she has out for sale.<br />

One brave fan even went to Thomas' office to ask him a question.</b></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc;"><b><br />
</b></span> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: What are Eve and Theron’s favorite colors?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “I don’t know. I really like dark purples, but the lavender in our bedroom is really pretty. So I guess any shade of purple would work.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “Orange.”</span></b><br />
<strong><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;"><br /></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;"><br /></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;"><br /></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;"><br /></span></strong><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: When did Theron stop being self-conscious of his eye colors and stop wearing sunglasses?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “After my mom died and my dad sent me off to school, I gave up on everything. Nothing anyone said made any difference to me anymore. I didn’t even want to exist. After a while the kids at my school figured out the comments didn’t bother me. In college I actually got complimented a lot. So unless it was sunny out I had no reason to hide.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: How did Theron come to love Eve so deeply at a young age?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “Oh, I want to know too.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “She never questioned who I was. She saved me. She’s my beautiful.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Will Theron’s reasons for leaving Eve be explained in Light?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #93c47d;">Amber Lacie: You’ll have to read Light to find out. ;)</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: When did Theron find Eve again? How long was he watching her?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “I never actually lost her. I may have tried to push her away, but she was always with me. Persistent in making me focus on what I was supposed to do with my life. It’s odd how roads twist and turn. She’s the only person that I kept going back to. I knew I needed her. Now, you want to know how long I was watching her? I plead the fifth. She’s right next to me and I don’t feel like suffering through an arm punch right now.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “I love you. We’ll talk about this later”</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc;"><b><br />
</b></span> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: What was the inspiration for Eve and Theron’s story?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b6d7a8;">Amber Lacie: “I love to people watch. It’s a bad habit of mine. I tend to create mini stories or wonder where people have come from, where they are going, etc. I was sitting on the beach and I noticed some kids playing in the water. At the same time a couple walked hand in hand right past them who looked ridiculously similar to the kids playing. So…Theron and Eve’s story grew from there.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: What did Eve think/how did she feel about Theron when they interacted as kids? Did she know his name then? Theron is not a common name…one you might remember. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “I didn’t know his name because he wouldn’t tell me. I knew my heart jumped when I was near him and felt compelled to protect him whenever Kayla would give him a hard time. It’s too hard to talk about without bringing up Matt. It’s been years, but it still stings. I was watching the snow fall outside the library windows the other day and my heart stopped still in my chest. It caught me off guard for a second. Winters were tarnished and so were my memories of the beach for a while. I’m okay though. I like to listen to Theron’s version of when we were little. It sounds more like a fairytale. I’m not even sure if I answered your question.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Theron…seriously, dude…a freaking note? That’s how you decide to leave the love of your life? I’m so mad at you!</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: Feel free to explain</span><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;"> this one Theron, the floor is yours.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: Fuck. I knew this was coming. Look, I wasn’t thinking right. I thought I was protecting her. I knew if I told her in person or even talked to her on the phone I would back out. I wouldn’t be able to walk away from her, but it was obvious to me I was hurting her. I couldn’t stand by loving her with everything I have to offer and still hurt her in the process. I didn’t think she loved me like I needed her to. She needed to heal from everything with Matt.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: Bullshit excuse if you ask me. It was fucking note! Who the hell does that? (Taking a deep breath) Sorry. I’m sorry. I forgive you. We’ve moved past it. I’m letting it go.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: I’ve apologized a million times over. Beautiful, I love you. After we are done with this interview why don’t we go home. I’ll run you a bath.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: Okay.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Amber, does your husband read your books?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b6d7a8;">Amber: No. He’s not a big reader. I had to really push him to read Hunger Games. I think that was the first series of books he’s ever finished. He says he will one day, but I’m not holding my breath. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: For Theron, Eve, and Amber what is your all-time favorite song?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #93c47d;">Amber: “That’s easy. Three am by Matchbox 20.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “Hmmm. I’m a huge Adele fan. So maybe Rolling in the deep?”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “My favorite band is Simply Three. The one song I tend to play over and over is Take me to Church. They cover Hozier’s song. I love the melody to it, it clears my head. Eve is my church. (Laughing) God, Evan would roll his eyes at me if he heard me say that.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Theron and Eve, pick a song that reminds you of the each other and explain why.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “Easy. Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran. I’ve loved Theron since I can remember. Just the touch of his hand sends my body and mind spinning. I’ll love him until the die I die and for a million years after that.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “All of Me by John Legend. She owns me. This crazy beautiful girl let me keep her. Everything I am, everything I want to be, everything I live for her is because of her. She’s my person.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <br />
<br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">At this point one brave fan left to go to ask t</span></b><b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">his question is for Thomas. Why all the hatred towards Theron? You don’t honestly believe he killed his mother, do you?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #e06666;">Thomas: “I have enough shit to deal with and you interrupt me for this? He was nothing, but a fucking leach sucking the life out of every person he touched. He ruined my life. He took everything from me. If I could do it all again, he wouldn’t be born. He’s an ungrateful little shit. Everything I’ve done for him and he sends you in here to question me? Get the fuck out of my office. Get. The. Fuck. Out. Now!”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">(Please note the brave fan left immediately and no further contact with Thomas was made)</span></b><b style="color: #6fa8dc;"> </b><br />

</b></span> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: What are Eve and Theron’s favorite colors?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “I don’t know. I really like dark purples, but the lavender in our bedroom is really pretty. So I guess any shade of purple would work.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “Orange.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: When did Theron stop being self-conscious of his eye colors and stop wearing sunglasses?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “After my mom died and my dad sent me off to school, I gave up on everything. Nothing anyone said made any difference to me anymore. I didn’t even want to exist. After a while the kids at my school figured out the comments didn’t bother me. In college I actually got complimented a lot. So unless it was sunny out I had no reason to hide.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: How did Theron come to love Eve so deeply at a young age?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “Oh, I want to know too.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “She never questioned who I was. She saved me. She’s my beautiful.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Will Theron’s reasons for leaving Eve be explained in Light?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #93c47d;">Amber Lacie: You’ll have to read Light to find out. ;)</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #ffd966;">Fans: When did Theron find Eve again? How long was he watching her?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “I never actually lost her. I may have tried to push her away, but she was always with me. Persistent in making me focus on what I was supposed to do with my life. It’s odd how roads twist and turn. She’s the only person that I kept going back to. I knew I needed her. Now, you want to know how long I was watching her? I plead the fifth. She’s right next to me and I don’t feel like suffering through an arm punch right now.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #444444; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “I love you. We’ll talk about this later”</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc;"><b><br />
</b></span> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: What was the inspiration for Eve and Theron’s story?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b6d7a8;">Amber Lacie: “I love to people watch. It’s a bad habit of mine. I tend to create mini stories or wonder where people have come from, where they are going, etc. I was sitting on the beach and I noticed some kids playing in the water. At the same time a couple walked hand in hand right past them who looked ridiculously similar to the kids playing. So…Theron and Eve’s story grew from there.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: What did Eve think/how did she feel about Theron when they interacted as kids? Did she know his name then? Theron is not a common name…one you might remember. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “I didn’t know his name because he wouldn’t tell me. I knew my heart jumped when I was near him and felt compelled to protect him whenever Kayla would give him a hard time. It’s too hard to talk about without bringing up Matt. It’s been years, but it still stings. I was watching the snow fall outside the library windows the other day and my heart stopped still in my chest. It caught me off guard for a second. Winters were tarnished and so were my memories of the beach for a while. I’m okay though. I like to listen to Theron’s version of when we were little. It sounds more like a fairytale. I’m not even sure if I answered your question.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Theron…seriously, dude…a freaking note? That’s how you decide to leave the love of your life? I’m so mad at you!</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: Feel free to explain</span><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;"> this one Theron, the floor is yours.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: Fuck. I knew this was coming. Look, I wasn’t thinking right. I thought I was protecting her. I knew if I told her in person or even talked to her on the phone I would back out. I wouldn’t be able to walk away from her, but it was obvious to me I was hurting her. I couldn’t stand by loving her with everything I have to offer and still hurt her in the process. I didn’t think she loved me like I needed her to. She needed to heal from everything with Matt.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: Bullshit excuse if you ask me. It was fucking note! Who the hell does that? (Taking a deep breath) Sorry. I’m sorry. I forgive you. We’ve moved past it. I’m letting it go.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: I’ve apologized a million times over. Beautiful, I love you. After we are done with this interview why don’t we go home. I’ll run you a bath.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: Okay.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />

</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Amber, does your husband read your books?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b6d7a8;">Amber: No. He’s not a big reader. I had to really push him to read Hunger Games. I think that was the first series of books he’s ever finished. He says he will one day, but I’m not holding my breath. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: For Theron, Eve, and Amber what is your all-time favorite song?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #93c47d;">Amber: “That’s easy. Three am by Matchbox 20.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “Hmmm. I’m a huge Adele fan. So maybe Rolling in the deep?”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “My favorite band is Simply Three. The one song I tend to play over and over is Take me to Church. They cover Hozier’s song. I love the melody to it, it clears my head. Eve is my church. (Laughing) God, Evan would roll his eyes at me if he heard me say that.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">Fans: Theron and Eve, pick a song that reminds you of the each other and explain why.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #b4a7d6;">Eve: “Easy. Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran. I’ve loved Theron since I can remember. Just the touch of his hand sends my body and mind spinning. I’ll love him until the die I die and for a million years after that.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #f6b26b;">Theron: “All of Me by John Legend. She owns me. This crazy beautiful girl let me keep her. Everything I am, everything I want to be, everything I live for her is because of her. She’s my person.”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;"><br />
</span></b> <br />
<br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">At this point one brave fan left to go to ask t</span></b><b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">his question is for Thomas. Why all the hatred towards Theron? You don’t honestly believe he killed his mother, do you?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #e06666;">Thomas: “I have enough shit to deal with and you interrupt me for this? He was nothing, but a fucking leach sucking the life out of every person he touched. He ruined my life. He took everything from me. If I could do it all again, he wouldn’t be born. He’s an ungrateful little shit. Everything I’ve done for him and he sends you in here to question me? Get the fuck out of my office. Get. The. Fuck. Out. Now!”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: #666666; color: #ffd966;">(Please note the brave fan left immediately and no further contact with Thomas was made)</span></b><b style="color: #6fa8dc;"> </b><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Shadows by Amber Lacie</span><br />
Kindle, Self published<br />
September 5, 2015<br />
213 Pages<br />
<br />
<br />
Eve was content getting lost in her books, while living with her best friends. She’s a beautiful girl surrounded by her friends and family. In her twenty six years of life, nothing exciting has ever happened to her. Everything is going perfectly for her. Little does she know, one summer at the beach could change her life forever. . . <br />
<br />
Theron is the son of a cutthroat multi-billionaire business tycoon. He thought he left behind the world his father created, but things change. Now, he’s devoted himself to his eccentric grandma. His only hope at overcoming his past, is finding the one person he lost so very long ago. . . <br />
<br />
When Eve bumps into Theron, their worlds collide. Nothing can prepare them for the instant fireworks and roller coaster ride waiting for them. <br />
But. . . One has a secret. Can their love overcome tragedy, lies, and secrets? <br />
<br />
----------------------------------------------------------------<br />
<br />
<br />
Where do I begin? Well, first how about this an amazing debut novel for Amber Lacie. Her characters were developed nicely and easy to relate to. Feeling the pain Eve went through that one fateful night. Feeling the horror she had to be feeling witnessing that crime. Feeling the passion she had with Theron. It is all there, including the hot sex.<br />
<br />
This novel will have you hating characters just as much as you love other characters, You will blush for some scenes and yelling at the characters in others. This an emotionally well built novel. It has everything a good romance story needs: secrets, drama, characters to hate, and a TWIST!!!! This novel will leave you on the edge of your seats, begging for more when you finish it.<br />
<br />
<br />
Well done, Amber Lacie, Well done.<br />
<br />

<div style="font-weight: normal; text-align: start;">
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">I
have a wonderful, supportive husband and three beautiful children. I enjoy spending time with all of
them which normally involves some baseball, shooting hoops, taking walks, watching movies, and of
course reading.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height:
19px;">My passion for reading began at a very young age and only grew over time. Whether I was
bringing home a book from the library, or sneaking one of my mom's romance novels and reading by the
light in the hallway when we were supposed to be sleeping, I always had a book. </span></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">I
read several different genres and subgenres, but Paranormal Romance and Romantic Suspense have
always been my favorites. I read anything by Katie Reus, Lora Leigh, J.R. Ward and Rebecca
Zanetti. </span></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">I
have always made up my own stories, and have just recently decided to start sharing them. I hope
everyone enjoys reading them as much as I enjoy writing them.</span></div>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">My name is Dyson Michaels and my life got
flipped upside down the day my grandfather passed away and in his ultimate wisdom,
he chose to mess with my life from beyond the grave.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">~Six months prior~ <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">“…therefore, in layman’s terms, unless you
are married by July 18th, and within five years produce an heir, your portion
of your grandfather’s estate and shares will be divided equally between your
three siblings. You will inherit nothing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">If you marry but do not produce an heir,
your shares will be divided among your siblings. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">If you do not wed by said date, you may if
you should so choose to, keep your position with your grandfather’s company and
draw a salary. You will also be entitled the corporate benefits program. Do you
have any questions?...” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">I knew by the word marriage, that it meant
in the conventional way, with the usual I do between a man and a woman in a
church with all the bells and whistles. I wanted to say no, I should have said
no, but like the fool I am I said yes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">And now I’m trying to explain to everyone,
why it is that I’m breaking Rebecca’s heart and I’ve been living a lie all my
life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">I’m still waiting for that bolt of
lightning to strike me dead.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

shoving my face
into the mattress, and had it been any other man I would have struggled from
his hold and thumped the lord living shit out of him, but I was in ecstasy as
he pounded relentlessly into me. My hands were tied at my back, my ass high in
the air and the sound of our pleasure was ringing throughout the entire
apartment. We had been at it for near two hours and true to his word, Harley
had not allowed me the pleasure of an orgasm. My balls were aching for release
as Harley’s balls clapped against them. I begged, I pleaded and I even
threatened to do strange thing to him while he slept, because sooner or later
he would sleep, yet he showed me no mercy. And I was relishing every second,
with a misbehaved smirk on his face<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">What would you do if your days were
numbered? <br />
Tandy Manning was left to decide just that.<br />
Housing long kept secrets, secrets she would surely take to her grave, she
resolves to spend what time is left on a cruise around the world. Fun and
adventure would be hers for the taking. After following someone else’s rules
for most of her existence, Tandy is elated to set off for a once in a lifetime
experience where no rules apply.<br />
55 days exploring the globe, see the sights, discovering exotic destinations
and with any luck, she would find a man to explore her untouched, unexplored,
unspoiled 22 year old state of virginity at last. With no outside interference,
on a ship with hundreds of potential takers, she would get her wham-bam moment
and be done. Unaware that her meddling father had assigned Gage Carter, his
newest security man, to keep a watch over her while she travels. <br />
Bad boy Gage is not at all happy with the idea of babysitting Mr. Manning’s
spoiled little girl, that is, until he sees her photograph. Watching her takes
on a whole new meaning once he meets her face to face. Given strict
instructions to maintain a distance and the warning to keep his hands to
himself, Gage isn’t so positive he can do the job he was sent to do. <br />
Will the secrets they hold reveal more than either of them expects.<br />
Love Boat was nothing like this adventure on the high seas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">Nearly three years ago, Eden Fox ran from
the only man she cared for because of an abusive relationship, to start anew in
<st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Boston</st1:place></st1:city>. <br />
Confident, strong and determined to make it on her own terms, no man would
stand in her way. Never would she allow a man to mistreat her again. Will <st1:city
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Eden</st1:place></st1:city>’s strength of mind
alone keep her violent past just that, in her past or will she be forever
haunted by the memories. <br />
Solely career driven and working her way up the ladder in a predominately male
firm, <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Eden</st1:place></st1:city>
finally earns the executive position she has sacrificed all for. Her personal
needs and wants tightly pushed to the side. But along with the winning bid that
earned her this prestigious position, comes Chase.<br />
Chase Dean, CEO of ‘Dean Construction Enterprises’. Tall dark and completely alpha-male,
he sets his sights on <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Eden</st1:place></st1:city>.
What Chase wants Chase must have.<br />
After turning her back on a personal life for so long, will she be able to hold
to her strict ‘No Mixing Business with Pleasure’ rule? Or will Chase challenge
that rule, when one crazy night of passion at ‘Pulse’ Night Club threatens to
turn her world upside down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif;">Someone wants vengeance and will stop at
nothing until he gets it. <br />
Until Mikala Santino closes the doors to Pulse Night Club permanently, her life
will remain an endless cycle of threats and terror, he’ll see to it. <br />
But unlike your average damsel in distress, Mikala has a tough as nails take no
crap attitude, she’s not about to crumble and won’t go down without a fight.
That is, until Mason Reed returns to throw in the proverbial wrench and flip
her world completely upside down. <br />
Once the love of her life, the man she thought was her always, Mason has
returned after abandoning her for eight long, lonely months. He’s come back to
rescue her, like an unwanted knight in shining armor and Mikala’s not happy at
all. Her walls have been carefully erected, Mason cautiously blocked from her
thoughts, but she fears it will take more willpower than she can manage to
resist him. <br />
Mason isn’t one to take ‘buzz off’ for an answer. Well aware of the mistake he
made by walking out of Mikala’s life all those months ago, he is going to do
what it takes to get her back, even if it takes a lifetime. He’s a man on a
mission, a mission to help her and break down her walls while he’s at it.
Mason’s determined to rebuild what they had…once upon a time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Carl Ward liked his cozy little life the way it was, his past and demons safely
hidden behind the gruff exterior he had managed so well, then came Landon, big

<p style="text-align: center;">The moment I saw her, I wanted her.
I tried to resist her, but Race had other plans.
One night, in a moment of weakness, I gave in to my desires.
I still had a job to do before her world collapsed.
If I failed at finding the person behind the threats, I could lose her forever.
Temptation can be dangerous.</p>

“You’re really purdy,” she slurred with a lopsided grin, running her finger down my cheek.
“That’s it. No more drinks for you,” I said, dragging the glass away from her.
“No! I’ve only had three,” she said as she lurched forward, pulling the drink out of my hands.
“I’m enjoying myself. I’ve had a bitch of a week and I deserve to let loose a little.”
I held my hands up. “You’ve actually had four martinis, but anything you want, princess.”
Her eyes grew into little slits. “I’m not your princess,” she slurred, sounding completely adorable.
My cheeks hurt as I smiled. “I’m going to take you home now. I think you need to sleep it off.”
“Last time I checked,” she said before hiccupping, “you’re not my daddy.” A slow smile crept across
her face. She scooted closer and whispered, “Unless that’s your thing.” She tried to wink, but both
eyes closed, one after the other.
I leaned into her space, a breath away from her lips. “It’s not my thing, but I’m happy to act out your
fantasies. But I don’t think you want to cross that line. Once you go there, there’s no going back.” I
stared into her eyes.
“Oooh.” Her eyes grew wide. “Is that supposed to scare me, Mr. DeLuca?”
I didn’t move. “I’m just giving you fair warning. You’ve had a few drinks, and I won’t take advantage
of that. I’m just telling you how it is.”
“You’re full of yourself.” Her warm, sweet breath caressed my lips as she spoke.
All I wanted to do was reach out, pull her face to mine, and kiss her full, beautiful lips. “I’m sure of
myself and confident in my abilities, yes. That’s entirely different than being full of myself.” I licked
my lips, testing her.
Her eyes dropped to my mouth as her lips parted.
“Another?” Lisa interrupted.
“We’re good,” I replied, keeping my eyes pinned to Race and waving Lisa off.
“Pfft,” Lisa scoffed, stomping away.
Race glared in Lisa’s direction. “She wants you,” she whispered.
<em>Was she jealous?
</em>“I don’t want her.”
“She’s a sure thing though.”
I leaned closer, leaving very little space between us. “I never liked easy.”
“All men like easy.” Her body swayed, moving so close our lips almost brushed.

I gave everything that I had to that love. Blindly believing that nothing could ever take that feeling away from me. Away from us. And when my little world of happiness was ripped from my fingers, I felt a loss that still haunts me to this day. </span></div>

It's that fear that keeps me from letting anyone, except my daughter, get close enough to make it hurt. To make my heart bleed when I inevitably lose again. </span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 2.4; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">His mouth leaves mine and with his hand still on my leg, he demands, “Dig your heels in deep, baby.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 2.4; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I give him what he wants, but not because he told me to. I give him what he wants because when his hand leaves my leg and pushes into the mattress, bringing his body up he goes even deeper into my body and those heels push hard.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 2.4; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Just as he demanded earlier, my hands go to his shoulders on my own accord and as he takes my body hard, my nails dig in with my heels still pushing hard against the small of his back. Our eyes never leave each other’s probing gaze. Never once do I take my eyes away from his, so full of lust that I know there isn’t an ounce of control left in his body.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 2.4; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">He drops his head and I lift up to meet him in a kiss so sweet it doesn’t match the powerful way that he’s taking my body. A kiss that gives me more than words ever could at this moment. His hips slow and as his tongue rolls against mine, his hips start to take me in slow, deep rolls. He doesn’t pull back, just rocks his hips against mine.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 2.4; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I push up and cry out when he slips even deeper.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 2.4; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">His lips come from mine and his hooded eyes open a sliver. “Feels like heaven,” he says softly. “Everything, darlin’. Feels like everything.”</span></div>

This is another one of those moments when I’m reminded that this group doesn’t have a single unattractive person in it. I take a second to look at all the well-built, good-looking men standing around him. When my eyes meet Liam Beckett’s, I look away quickly. For months now Liam has made no secret that he would love nothing more than my undivided attention. </span></div>

I blush when I realize that my thoughts aren’t staying in my head, where they belong. When I look back over to where the group of men are standing, my eyes hit the familiar pair of deep brown ones again, eyes that always seem to know each and every time I’m looking their way. I quickly look away, feeling that blush get even brighter. I’m not ready to deal with </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">him</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> right now.

They’ve done a beautiful job transforming the backyard of Dani’s family home for Cohen and Dani’s wedding. I still can’t believe that Dani managed to pull off a surprise wedding without Cohen even catching the smallest hint of her plans.</span></div>

Each rumbled word vibrating through my body creating a slow burn until they end with a sharp pulse between my legs. His arms locked at my elbows and my back solidly against his front – where my graceless stumble caused me to end up. I jerk my body tight and feel his laughter reverberate through my body once again. </span></div>

Shifting until my face is turned, he lets one arm go and helps me spin until I’m facing him, and moves his hands from my elbows to my hips.</span></div>

I might not be drunk, but I am definitely slightly past tipsy. Dealing with Liam – or rather my attraction to Liam – is hard enough for me on a good day, when I’m completely sober. But with this amount of wine flowing through my body, I just can’t trust myself.</span></div>

I hear Dani excuse herself. I don’t turn to watch her disappear in the lingering crowd of party-goers that are still left milling around. The music is still floating in the air around us. As I look into his eyes everything around me feels like it’s…alive. It’s a feeling that I’ve been missing for the last few years. A feeling that only comes to visit when I’m with my daughter, or until recently, when Liam Beckett is in the same room. It’s a feeling that, even though I shouldn’t, I feel guilty for allowing myself to enjoy.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

If I had given myself just a second to process my next move, I’m sure I would have backed out of his hold and run as fast as I could to my car. But, I didn’t think, so my next move was pure, one-hundred-percent Megan. But not the Megan I’ve been for the last couple years since my husband died. No, this Megan feels like I’ve finally dug myself out of those ashes I’ve been living in since my life burned up around me. The cloak of depression that normally lingers loosely around my shoulders, dropping to my feet with the feel of Liam pressed tight. I know this feeling won’t last, but I suddenly want to hold on to every second I can of this experience, until it leaves me.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

My eyes growing wide when his brow lifts. With a quick push I rock up and close the distance that is left between our mouths. When my lips touch his, that feeling of being alive burns so bright every nerve in my body feels it, each inch of skin boiling and cooling so quickly it’s as if I can’t make up my mind if I want to be hot or cold. My hairs stand on end, my skin pebbles – going cold before rushing heat fills my veins, and the very thump of my heart seems to skip a beat the second our lips touch.</span></div>

I want this. I want this and Liam’s going to give it to me.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

His groan vibrating against my chest only lights the feeling that is firing through my skin. My hands move from his forearms and I run my hands up his chest until both hands curl around his neck and I use the hold to pull my body even closer to his. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

When I feel the very obvious sign of his attraction, I moan deeply, and shiver when he answers with one of his own.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

When his tongue moves to swipe against my lips, I open without reservation. We continue, our tongues dancing together while each of our moans are swallowed by the other, until I have to pull away to gulp a breath of air before I pass out – however, the way I feel right now, passing out might very well be a possibility.</span></div>

This is happening,” he says, pausing when he reaches the side of the house and the shadows that will give us the privacy we need. His body turns, moving me to stand before him once again. “I need to know you’re with me, Megan. I’ve wanted this since the day I met you, but I knew you weren’t ready for me. I’ve been trying to keep my distance, just waiting for those clouds to leave your eyes. If you don’t want me to take you back to my house, strip you naked and fuck you until you can’t walk for weeks, then say so now, because the second I have you I won’t be letting go.” </span></div>

Not when I pull my belt across my chest. Not when he slams the door and races to his own. It grows wider when he slams the truck in drive and fishtails back onto the path that will take us back toward town. It isn’t until his big hand reaches out and takes my leg in his strong hold that my smile slips slightly, but it only slips because my head falls back and I whimper and try to rub my legs together to ease the ache between them. I lose the smile completely when my mouth drops open and that whimper turns into a loud whine as his long fingers dance up my legs until he slips beneath the hem on my shorts and pushes my panties to the side, pressing against my clit in sure movements that have me panting in seconds.</span></div>

His finger dips from my swollen clit and as he drops his hand lower, his wrist twists slightly so that when he gets there his finger slides deep inside me.</span></div>

If he keeps this up, I won’t last. He adds a second finger and my hand digs into the door and I reach out, wrapping my other around his forearm and choke on shattered breaths when he thrusts his fingers so deep, I feel like I’ve been electrocuted as he hits </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">that</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> spot that has me panting, whimpering and begging incoherently.</span></div>

His hand leaves my pants and I cry out, causing him to spit out a string of curses that would make a sailor blush. His leg slams down and I feel the truck pick up speed as I watch him take his fingers to his mouth and lick every drop of my wetness from his skin.</span></div>

She (and her 3 daughters) enjoy ruling the house they dubbed 'Estrogen Ocean', much to her husband’s chagrin. Harper has a borderline unhealthy obsession with books; you can almost ALWAYS find her with her eReader attached. She enjoys bad reality TV and cheesy romantic flicks. Her favorite kind of hero--the super alpha kind!</span></div>

<h3>
<span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">Author Bio:</span></h3>
<h3>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; font-weight:
normal; line-height: 115%;">I have a wonderful,
supportive husband and three beautiful children. I enjoy spending time with all
of them which normally involves some baseball, shooting hoops, taking walks,
watching movies, and of course reading.</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 115%;">
<span style="background: white;">My passion for reading began at a very young age
and only grew over time. Whether I was bringing home a book from the library,
or sneaking one of my mom's romance novels and reading by the light in the
hallway when we were supposed to be sleeping, I always had a book.<span class="apple-converted-
space"> </span></span><br />
<span style="background: white;">I read several different genres and subgenres,
but Paranormal Romance and Romantic Suspense have always been my favorites. I
read anything by Katie Reus, Lora Leigh, J.R. Ward and Rebecca Zanetti.<span class="apple-converted-
space"> </span></span><br />
<span style="background: white;">I have always made up my own stories, and have
just recently decided to start sharing them. I hope everyone enjoys reading
them as much as I enjoy writing them.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>

<h4>
<span style="color: black;">Lisa Taylor’s life stalled after her divorce three years ago, and she never got
it started up again. Now her shit-paying catalogue photography job is boring her to death, she can’t bear

solution to all those problems. Tempting as he is -- <i>and god almighty, he is!</i> -- taking

<h4>
<span style="color: black;"><b>She’s all work.</b></span>
<span style="color: black;"> Fifteen years ago, Natalie Simmons reinvented herself with a single goal: to
earn her father’s respect. The frivolous, attention-seeking college girl is now a workaholic lawyer on
partnership track.</span>
<span style="color: black;"> That is, until Sam Danmore shows up.</span></h4>
<h4>
<span style="color: black;"><b>He’s all play.</b></span>
<span style="color: black;"> He’s gorgeous, famous, arrogant as ever, and can still drench her panties
with a look and a grin -- a fact which only reinforces how much she hates him. And wants
him.</span></h4>
<h4>
<span style="color: black;">When an obsessed fan forces Sam into hiding, Natalie has to help him or risk
getting caught up in the media frenzy, herself. But her unwanted, yet deepening attraction to him
threatens the new life she has built... because Sam has spent the last fifteen years living up to his
reputation, and Natalie is still trying to live hers down.</span></h4>

Blurb:
Everyone has a story.
For Marcela Ortiz, hers is not one she wants to remember.
Deceived by those closest to her, Marcela is thrown deep into a world of violence, corruption and trafficking. The dark,
sinister world belonging to one Hector Florez, Mexico’s leading cartel boss.
What he wants is control.
What she craves is her freedom.
To survive, Marcela must overcome the demons who promise to destroy her and challenge fate to a story she has only
dreamed of.
SOFIA, the final instalment of the Bittersweet series is built on heartache, revenge and redemption.
One unlikely group of people.
One common enemy.
Many stories.
Excerpt:
“I was a fool tonight,” Xavier began, causing me to frown at him in confusion.
“How so?”
“I should have kissed you on the dance floor. That way I would’ve had a whole night of tasting you.”
I didn’t know what to say, the breath had been sucked clean from me. His delicious lips hovered next to
mine, a magnetic pull between us becoming too hard to bear.
“I can’t wait any longer,” he whispered.
“I don’t want you to wait.” A tingling sensation roared through my body and I knew I wanted this more
than anything. He answered my silent pleas by pulling me against his hard body and lowering his lips to graze
mine. It was a tease. A small taster of things to come. But I was already weak at the knees. I wanted him to
possess me. His hands formed tighter fists in my hair, his hooded eyes telling me he could wait no longer.
Xavier’s lips came crashing onto mine, claiming the last of my strength. I melted into him, responding to his
tongue while failing to disguise the gentle moan passing between us. It was everything I had fantasized it to be.
It was everything I had craved. He tasted sweet from sugary mojito’s, his passion a fury that couldn’t be tamed.
